Abstract
This thesis is additionally focusing on the gripping mechanism of the end gripper for power transmission line inspection robot.
Throughout this thesis, the main objective is to design the end gripper for the existing transmittal line inspection robot. The end gripper for power transmission line inspection robot is designed to bypass or avoid all the obstacles that have in the power transmission line when it travels through it. The end gripper should be durable to perform the inspection in a long distance and time.
The designed end gripper in this thesis is a six degrees-of-freedom gripper which is flexible to grasp the power transmission line cable. The design, analysis and simulation of the end gripper will depend intensely on the design software, SolidWorks and Creo Parametric 2.0. Finally, the prototype of the end gripper have been done and it is proved to accomplish the objectives of this thesis.
